WAYNESBORO — Is that trinket trash or treasure? Find out at the 17th annual Business Expo 7:30 a.m. to noon Saturday, Feb. 9, at Waynesboro Area Senior High School, 550 E. Second St. Co-sponsored by the Greater Waynesboro Chamber of Commerce and The Record Herald, spectator admission to the expo is free.
In addition to visiting with some of the area's most-respected companies from a variety of business sectors, spectators will be able to meet with local collectors Terry Barkdoll and Sam Tressler to get carry-in items appraised for $5 per item. Suggested items to bring for appraisal include coins, Pen Mar and Waynesboro memorabilia, John Bell pottery and antique toys.
Bill Scott of Wild Bill's, 74 W. Main St., will buy gold and silver at a fee of $5 per person.
Proceeds from both booths will wholly benefit the effort to construct the 9/11 Tribute in Red Run Park. A scale prototype of the 9/11 Tribute will be on display at the expo.
The expo will be held in conjunction with Waynesboro Lions Club's annual all-you-can-eat pancake and sausage breakfast that starts at 7 a.m. in the cafeteria. Tickets can be purchased for $5 per person prior to the breakfast and $6 per person at the door. Tickets for children ages 5 to 12 are $3. Tickets can be purchased prior to Feb. 9 from Waynesboro Lions Club members. Tickets are also available at Edward Jones on East Main Street, and at Grove-Bowersox Funeral Home. Members of the Waynesboro Lioness Club will also hold a bake sale during the breakfast.
“The chamber business expo is time well spent learning about the many services and products offered by local businesses while you enjoy all-you-can-eat pancakes and sausage,” said chamber executive director Carlene Willhide. “What a great way to spend a Saturday morning in February!”
